Sonnet Presto Gigabit Ethernet Pro PCIe Adapter Card, Supports Jumbo Packets and Link Aggregation, 1000 Mbps/2000 Mbps Transmission Rates

Whether you need to add a third Gigabit Ethernet port to your older Mac Pro for improved performance, or step up to Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for your PC, get a Sonnet Presto Gigabit Pro PCIe Gigabit Ethernet adapter card for PCI Express for an advanced networking solution. This Sonnet card supports link aggregation with your Mac's onboard Gigabit Ethernet ports and full duplex communication to achieve 2000 Mbps transfer rates-the ideal solution for high-bandwidth data transfer requirements. Presto Gigabit Ethernet Pro PCIe also supports 9000 byte jumbo packet transfers (compared to 1500 byte standard packets) to support higher performance and reduced overhead when transferring large files.

It is compatible in Mac Pro (early 2008-2012) and PCs with a PCIe slots. This card is also compatible with any Mac with a Thunderbolt port when installed is a Sonnet Echo Express Thunderbolt-to-PCIe card expansion chassis or other qualified Thunderbolt expansion system.
